Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety / Spiritual Malady
Our discussion is not partisan, licensed, nor is it an academic or scientific thesis, medical diagnosis, prognosis, philosophy, prescription, discipline, cure or treatment. Based on experience, we neither propose nor oppose any position, person, place, or thing nor do we promote rituals or any religious service - real or imagined.
Listening indicates some interest in solving mental conflicts. Automatic reliance on what you hear is not suggested nor is it a substitute for taking direction from responsible parties you rely on, are cared for by or under the influence of, including professionals.
Our conversation is about conditions we create, induce and impose, and control even while in
disbelief we could possibly have anything to do with such ugly disturbances. We each determine these conditions or come to terms with the role we play by accurately diagnosing them. If your mental state seems wholly out of control that may not actually be correct.
There is no greater enemy than the one we imagine to be our self. There is no greater impact anyone else can make on our experience since our brain is where choices are determined immediately alongside our pain and pleasure zones.
Induced insanity is a disturbing mental condition. It allows we can make believe we have nothing to do with the problem. As a result it is easy to conclude there is nothing we can do about it. No amount of hopelessness can ever overcome this hopeless thought as long as it is maintained.
Mistaking thoughts for reality causes misgivings about Reality and Truth. Life only seems complicated when we mistake how we think of life and truth as our reality. This position presumes there is not other reality.
Feeling empty, alone, disconnected? Feeling out of place? Trying to find where you belong, yet never arrive? Seeking, searching, questioning day after day? Trying to feel better, get over the past or get past the present discomfort? Feeling hopeless about hopeless ideas is a good sign that our body language is guiding us accurately - even while we are not listening.
Consideration is contemplative, awakened meditation. Absolute Knowing Awareness is simple because it does not change, it is natural and it is our nature - not an option or negotiatiable.
Awe and inspiration are the realization that all possibility is present here, now, for all that is and all who are—always in all ways.
Knowing’s nature is Absolute: not negotiable, occasional, or optional.
There is no doubt where there is no question.
Reality and Truth are the Substance of Life. Lying has no substance and so generates unhealthy, conflicted turmoil. Loneliness is an accurate reflection of disconnected, baseless thinking. Creating any cause while denying its effects sustains the vicious cycle of obsessive thoughts, which lie at the center of addictive behaviors.
Einstein noted: “You cannot fix a problem with the same thinking that created it.”
Symptomatic recovery does not cure obsessive mental illness; it cleans the lens so the problem can be seen. Emotional sobriety is sane living. When wrong is seen as wrong it is right. This does not correct the wrong but allows for correction.
Peace on earth does not require the grave thought we must first be being buried in it.

MOD LXXXVIII
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thinking. Accurately noticing wrong allows it to dissolve rather than develop new ways to think feeling better about it is a solution. Dissolving problems does not require repeated re-solution.
If the essence of existence exists then it is essential. To think it possible that we can be excluded from what is essential is to look at our world through the optics of an upside-down lens of misunderstanding mistakenly imagined to be reality and truth. Thoughts of this nature are naturally conflicted since they are at odds with everything including themselves. Inner conflict, emotional turmoil, and mental anguish are body language guiding awareness of something wrong. Wrong thoughts are not a chronic problem until they are believed to be right. The essence of existence is as stable as it is simple since it does not change; It IS True as Reality is Real. It is our changing thoughts imagined to be real and true that we suffer with internally and try to exact revenge externally to balance this imbalance. The odds of getting even while at odds with our own experience are zero.
Trying to feel better and get over what is wrong ignores the wrong we are trying to feel better and get over and no amount of chronic effort can achieve this. This form of management is hopeless since it maintains the problem. To say we want to correct it by Ignoring it is a lie. Our brains are designed to process reality and nervously break down when we insist they process insanity. If we did not know better we would not know something is wrong and wrong being our nature it would be all we could do. We do know and that is why we persist in trying to feel better and get over the problem. To insist on resisting the problem we make is to have it seem as though its persistence has a life of its own. For as long and hard as we make-believe we can create reality will we turn our back on facing the internal messes we make that turn into the circumstances that seem as unjust as they seem to happen to us. Make-believe is fantasy - Reality is Reality.
Our discussion is not based on new forms of impossibility but the concession that nature in all substantive forms is essential to our nature as sourced in the presence of all possibility now. Right here, Right now i
We Know We Know.
We Are Aware We Are Aware.
We Are as We Are.
Reality is unlimited and never changes. The idea that how and what we think creates reality suggests otherwise. Acting on backward thoughts leads to behaviors that are out of order reflecting a reversal of our natural fortune that are accurately called disorders. Anxious, nervous and systemic disorders reflect this impossible attempt to reverse Nature’s Law and Order and our Universe's Essence. Dis-ease is the lack of ease created and maintained by such twisted mental acrobatics. Stress and Anxiety inhibit healing and compound and degrade health.
Mentality is a bodily function. Mental disease is a physcial ailment. For as long as it is misdiagnosed - any cure or treatment will perpetuate its contagion.
Principles affirm Our Indivisible nature. Sharing Principles confirms our natural indivisibility. Inspiration is natural while desperation, depression, degradation and acting oblivious to what is obvious is an unnatural choice to oppose reality which is impossible to accomplish though we are free to try.
Ignoring what is happening, acting as though it shouldn't be or isn't happening, produces the unintelligible gibberish of ignorance - not reality.
